Vacuum Bubble® Technology:
A Brief History
In the early 1970s, Vacuum Bubble® Technology was first used in livestock production.
The elimination of odor and sludge in manure storage pits and lagoons along with
the reduction of corrosive gases in animal confinement buildings through the use of
VBT™ became a major contributor to the development of environmentally sound agriculture.
By the 1990s, Vacuum Bubble® Technology had been adapted to improve the operation of home septic tanks.
Addition of the Vacuum Bubble® Technology Aerator to an existing or new home septic tank showed that a
clear, odorless effluent was produced, and there was a reduction in the need for regular sludge pumping.
It was also found that the use of VBT™ extended the life of drain fields. A further refinement of the
Vacuum Bubble® Technology Aerator was the development of a retrofit kit for installation in failed aerobic
treatment units.
All kitchen waste from restaurants is held in underground grease traps and the VBT™ was shown to reduce
costs through the less frequent need for grease trap pumping. Customers and restaurant staff were also
pleased by the elimination of offensive grease trap odors. Cleaner grease trap effluent also meant
less clogging and fewer backups in kitchen drains.
The same principles that made Vacuum Bubble® Technology so effective in livestock production were also found
to be applicable to large commercial users in many industrial applications. Industrial processes which had
foul odors due to an accumulation of anaerobic bacteria were improved by the Vacuum Bubble® Technology Aerator.
Operating costs relating to disposal of unintended organic sludge accumulation were significantly reduced or, as
in some cases, eliminated.
In 2001, with the assistance of the Space Alliance Technology Outreach Program (SATOP) the technology was
further developed in the aquaculture environment. The use of VBT™ demonstrated increased survival rates
and increased yields of fish in breeding ponds.
